Why anyone would take what he said seriously, I dont know.

Maybe because he’s Chairman of the FCC, and wields enormous power?

Ok Karen

No, I don’t think being assessed relative to subpar students is a benefit. You’d get a better letter grade, sure. But likely a worse education due to “lowering the bar”, which is what you paid for. Educators often can’t grade on absolute scales because the pass/fail ratio of the students factors into their own performance assessment.

Lower class participation, impact on grading curves, and distracting behavior all have an effect on others.

Because your enrollment in a class is not without consequence. If you are doing poorly due to being distracted by your phone, you are creating harm for other students and the lecturer/professor. Thinking that you are free to behave however you wish just because you are the customer is an extremely consumer-minded Karen-esque mindset.

Yeah I won’t pretend to know or care about the way it’s done for whole humans. I am dubious of its feasibility, leaning strongly towards thinking it’s just plain old exploitation of grieving people.

“I paid for it” isn’t an excuse to do whatever you want.

I mean, if they’re frozen their cells are ruptured. Not strictly true, biologists freeze cells all the time.

Yeah its so annoying when someone uses the wrong one

You wouldn’t use yours anyway.

They’re AirTags in shoes, dude. Kids aren’t learning to submit to authoritarians because of Sketchers, they’re just finding their shoes faster.

Yes

We’ll need luck… everything is fucked. But I stand by belief that we need fewer guns, not more. Even if it’s not a realistic outcome.

Yikes 😬

I am arguing that being quieter can/does increase harm. Sure, not by a whole lot, I know it’s still loud af. But it does make a difference.

I’m not factually incorrect, and I’m not insulting people. I am being dismissive of assholes who just repeat “Hollywood myth” ad nauseam but I hope you can see how that’s warranted.

Never in a million years did I expect a progressive politics community to so vehemently defend guns and oppose regulation of guns and gun accessories.

Sure, but I just disagree in this case. It’s the same thing. Proliferating guns is the best way to prevent them from being banned. A gun owner never wants to give up their gun.
